Railroad Crossings I've Recorded With GRS Gate Mechanisms (Part 1)

- one or more of the gate mechanism(s) at this crossing has been replaced since this video was recorded
** - crossing has received an upgrade since this video was recorded, but the gate mechanism(s) still remain
Decided to go through and make a compilation of all of the various grade crossings I've filmed over the years that have GRS gate mechanisms, of both the Type B and Type D varieties, of which I've currently filmed 58 different crossings, apparently. Most of what I've filmed are GRS Type Ds, though both of the GRS Type Bs I've filmed are featured in this compilation. These gate mechs have always been a favorite of mine, even if I do typically prefer the WRRS ones, and they're always nice to find still in service.
If you like my videos, feel free to leave me a tip on Ko-Fi! Any tips you give will be used to help cover the cost of gas on my trips.

Don’t forget the GRS Heavyweight and Lightweights exist, I believe there is some still in the east but there is only 4 remaining in the west if I’m correct

[@freebrickproductions]

Well, I ain't shot any of those (yet), so they aren't gonna be in this video or the next one. I'm only aware of the GRS Type Bs and Ds existing over here in the east, at least in the present-day.

What are GRS gates?

[@freebrickproductions]

GRS is short for General Railway Signal Co., the company who made the gate mechanisms primarily featured in this video.

[@freebrickproductions]

@@Robby-idk Which left light? There are multiple left-hand lights at that first crossing.

[@Robby-idk]

@@freebrickproductions in the first

[@freebrickproductions]

@@Robby-idk Okay, but specifically *which* left light on the first crossing? Because I can count three left lights facing the camera there:
-Left mast light on the closer signal
-Front-left overhead light on the closer signal
-Rear-right (left from the camera's perspective) overhead light on the far signal
